Try As He Might, Daniel Radcliffe Will Never Be A Bad Boy

Ladies, gird your loins, because little Daniel Radcliffe is on the prowl for a new lady in every city! …At least, that’s the vibe we’re getting from this article that claims that D. Rad “dated and dumped” his Kill Your Darlings co-star Erin Darke.

But wait, what about Rosie Coker? Until recently, Daniel was said to have been dating Rosie, a production assistant for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2, but since July he’s been spotted out and about with other mystery women. And now comes the report that he hooked up with Erin and totally led her on. An insider tells Life & Style magazine,

“Erin thought it was a real relationship, going as far as introducing Daniel as her boyfriend. He’s flown her out to London and taken her on dates and spent plenty of time with her in NYC, but Daniel just up and left New York without a second thought. Erin was devastated!”

Is it me, or does this story just ring kind of false? I feel like Dan’s people are trying to build him up as some sort of seductive asshole, when he comes across as a much sweeter guy. It’s like when he starred in Equus and every headline was “Harry Potter Is Naked!” Yes, we all strip down at some point in our lives, so having this child star do so isn’t that radical.

Similarly, I don’t doubt that Dan enjoys the occasional hook-up, but it’s hard to cast him in that “love ‘em and leave ‘em” role. Especially when he’s already revealed himself to be a little more sensitive than other guys his age. This past February, when he was definitely still with Rosie, he told the Daily Mirror that he usually shied away from one-night stands, especially with groupies. “I was always very nervous about the groupie thing. I like to like somebody before I sleep with them,” he confessed. “You know, you’re going to have to talk to them afterwards, even if it is a one-night stand. I have… I mean, that has happened, but generally speaking I’ve known the person. Apart from a few times when I was drinking.”

Good point there! I tried to look her up and could only find fake Twitter accounts. At least, they looked fake, it was someone shilling for gift cards. Maybe she’s trying to ease into the spotlight.

I do not understand why Daniel’s people, do something like that,(?) this article says something that has no real evidence, sorry , but I think you are lying. I don’t know where it’s from, but definitely not people who work with him. I believe that if he was unemployed and wanting to draw attention in some way, is not the case, he don’t needs more attention than he already has. Make up something else more credible for the next.

Agreeing with Mary. He was with Rosie for over a year before they got papped in NY, why would his publicists/people spill the beans on his dating when they never commented on Dan’s private life before, they always leave that to Dan, and two like Stef said he’s not an out of work actor that needs cheap a** publicity.
